Makkabi form and stats

Makkabi's last game was hosting Union Furstenwalde and winning 4-0. As mentioned above, Makkabi "killed" Union Furstenwalde in their previous game. They need to reset completely for this one and beware of complacency.

A Oberliga: Nordost-Nord defeat was the result before that one, 1-2 away at Lichtenberg.

Makkabi are traveling soon after this match as the Reg. Cup Berlin match at Berliner TSC awaits in three days.

VfL Wolfsburg form and stats

They also participated in DFB Pokal last season. This ended in the round of 16.

Playing away, VfL Wolfsburg have won 7 games, drawn 3 and suffered 7 defeats in the Bundesliga this season.

VfL Wolfsburg have lots to to set right after their unpredictable defeat (1-2) to Hertha BSC in their previous outing, played at their own home ground. Arnold got a match rating of 7.42 in that game, top player of the team. Arnold had 57 successful passes (of 63 total).

It was a Bundesliga defeat before that one as the away game against SC Freiburg wasn't a success with a 0-2 loss.

Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far VfL Wolfsburg have scored 23 goals in 17 league games away. As opposed to that, Wolfsburg have seen the ball go into their own net 23 times on the road.
